Exciter - Tim "Ripper" Owens

[ivanovsky1]

chingonsisima!! puta voz del mismisimo lucifer!!! excelente :)

[Geomapaxtor]

Gamma Ray's Cover is 1000 times better than this shit. Shame on Ripper Owens...

[mulehead126]

Thanks for posting this, I love Rob of course but I'm glad to see Ripper stuff too.

[beastwishes]

This cover is really pants :\ What the hell is going on with the guitar? Tim has a great voice but it's wasted here.

[gerardo4732]

What's with the Iron Maiden logo letters?.. It's like a double tribute!..

[purpledino167]

@gerardo4732 Hahah that's what i was thinking!! :)

[ambermangel]

Dear God he is unbelievable, he took them to the next level with his vocals. Absolutely powerful lungs on this dude. Love ya Ripper!!!!!!

[bubbatha]

Tim Owens is awesome!

[petleyke]

The business!!!

[dsrocknroller]

Tim Owens is great - I can understand if someone doesn't like him, but please understand why many DO like him....he rocks!

[hitman802]

i bang my head till i bleed !

[heavymetal7080]

judas priest in iron maiden font? cool.

[zls9890]

I actually know tha guitarist that did the first solo on this. Marzi is a total badass, IMO.

[PaleHROse]

The coolest fuckin thing i came across...in like 22 years of Metal bangin!!!!!!

[PaleHROse]

Fukin awesome vocals I hope he settles down and makes a band we are waiting

[UpTheSnakes]

Hell Bent Forever is a kick ass cover album they are all good believe me;D

[UpTheSnakes]

Great version of this classic. Ripper should record more Priest songs that Priest didn't released with him live.

[MrAdammassacre]

Holy shit!! the intro scream is just wow!! dont even think Halford could "Rip" that one out \m/

[Metal4Lyfe29]

@MrAdammassacre lol

[whaaselfesteem]

@MrAdammassacre Check out the screams toward the end of "Metal Messiah" from the demolition album!

[MrAdammassacre]

@whaaselfesteem yeah dude fuckin killer \m/

[vanfanel150]

@MrAdammassacre Hahahahha! What are you fucking stupid? Halford could rip it like it's nobody's business. Just listen to the wails on Sad Wings of Destiny or Painkiller.

[MrAdammassacre]

@vanfanel150 Yeah he COULD but not so much these days Ripper gives me that "metal buzz" that Halford gave me back in the day and imo Ripper should still be in Priest coz Halford IS past it now and ive been a Priest fan for many years so it does pain me to say that \m/

[bigbobbyp2808]

TIM OWENS, POSSIBLY THE GREATEST SINGER I N METAL TODAY!!!!!!!!!

[leonidas6326]

guys just listen to roblive performances and you'll see that he COMPLETELY SUCKS!!! ripper 4ever

[DragonRedWhite]

Judas Priest the best only without Halford

[mani1357mani]

this song ROCKS!!

i love it.

[Theblackmetalist]

I love how they say Tim owens was 1 of the worst replacement singers of all time if anything he is one of the best u can find many ppl to sound like Rob Halford so tim was a Great replacement

[MrAdammassacre]

anyone else get a HUGE fucking metal boner when Ripper screams out \m/ awesome \m/

[dsamalin]

agree with jugulator - it takes one hell of a vocalist with a pair of balls to cover exciter - ripper has both

[shoeme123]

why is there a picture of trojan man

[Jesse19912]

Good, but Scheepers does it better than Ripper.

[jugulator0]

has to be one of the most daunting songs to cover -in fact anyone contemplating covering judas needs a medal for courage

[TheAmeader]

good old ripper

[fattirevsbud]

this is not an easy song to sing. I remember reading the band saying that Rob would sing it higher and higher and higher and higher live till the point where they didn't know where he'd stop

[12mozzofull]

The Ripper fucking rips!!!!!!!!!!

[hitman802]

fall to your knees and repent if you please!

stained class the best judas'album!

[metalzmaven]

Lame!!!

[ctcassidy]

Bad f'n ass!!!!

[rick087]

Not good at all.

[Wyndrax]

As much as I love Ripper's voice, I have to say I prefer Ralf Scheepers' version of this one.

Although the scream at the beginning is incredible.

[vigoraelectronic]

22 Mayo Ciudad Juarez Chihuahua. Tim Ripper Owens. Estadio Cartablanca $150mx.

[standby4excita]

usually i'm a fan of ripper's stuff, but i don't really like this cover

[XBLincrement]

Oh man what great cover done by the mighty scream machine Tim Ripper Owens. LOVE IT!

[666Napalm666Death666]

all in all this a good album of tribute to one of the heaviest and most hardest working bands around but i think tim should have sang on all the songs this cd and should have had painkiller on this cd and that would have made it better tim got his dream to front the band he always loved and he has been garded has one the next rob halford and one of the best fucking singers around FALL TO YOUR KNEES AND REPENT IF YOU PLEASE!!!!!

[TheEternalEnigma]

What a fucking joke.

[danielthibault]

yeah rules on quebec city

[KISS4evr]

the funny thing about this is that it's slower than the original and the original was made in '78!

[Wyndrax]

He should have done Painkiller instead of this one.

Awesome performance, though.

[kingdiamond69]

Was front row at the demolition tour a while back i was banging to grinder all of a sudden i feel my hat snatched off my head i looked up ripper had my red wings cap on ! After the show he KK Glen and Ian came out to pose for pictures he sees me and says man you gotta fuckin huge head! I laughed so hard i almost pissed myself lol.

[Langamaiden]

Hey brothers if you like this version, you may listen Gamma Ray's version it is awesome too and is sing by Ralf Scheepers for Primal Fear greetings

[billybambam1111]

i dont think there is anyone out there better than ripper owens to take robs place,and i think ripper has a more ballsy voice than rob

[digitalscream1]

Going solely with opinion, Scheepers is even better suited for Halford than Owens. As a vocalist myself and very familiar with techniques, live ability etc, Scheepers holds the crown in this case. His technique is flawless live (where it really counts) and has a better range than Owens too. I wish Sheepers got the job, but then we wouldn't have Primal Fear. Either way they're both killer vocalists. Check out Gamma Rays version, it f'n smokes.

[kromlord1]

your fucking high'' ripper owens'' will smoke that fag'' meaning scheepers'' dude he dosent have the the power'' hands down'' ripper owens' has the most'' poweful and range'' then anybody in metal history'' if fucking kk dowing says'' ripper owens'' has more range''' RANGE THEN'' rob ever did''hands down'' thiers nobody on the planet'' can compete with ripper'' go listen to abigal king diamond cover'' by ripper'' ripper'' kills it live'' its perfect'' your a fucking lamo wannabe'''

[tracycrush]

ABSOLUTELY !!!!!

[ROBBiESMiTTENS]

@billybambam1111 He does, but...he just doesn't have the "flair" that makes it Judas Priest...and the first song off of Jugulator is a testament to that fact :l

[metalskuu]

@billybambam1111 I think Ralph Scheepers is a better vocalist , my friend ... it's just my opinion ;)

[krystaleth666]

@billybambam1111 more ballsy yes, but no one can replace the man who voiced the painkiller

[ChristHasCome]

@billybambam1111 True, but Rob is the one who gargles balls, all respect to that man though his voice is great, lol.

[vanfanel150]

@billybambam1111 Nah. I don't think so. Owens doesn't have that good a voice. Maybe for Iced Earth he does, but not for Judas Priest.

[LegalizeCrlme]

@billybambam1111 youre wrong about that for sure lmfao.

[littledrummerofDEATH]

@billybambam1111 he sounds almost identical to him

[soadhusky]

@billybambam1111 ralf scheepers

[asuschrist]

@soadhusky Kai Hansen. Check out Victim of Changes cover..

[soadhusky]

@asuschrist yap, hansen kicks ass too, i think its the best priest cover i ever heard. gamma ray were always cool no matter with kai or ralf on vocals

[soadhusky]

@asuschrist by the way did you here the new scheepers record, he took ripper owens on vocals as gueast, and kai hansen, chlasciak, smolsky and beyrodt as guest guitarists! this album rules, check tis one

[xCharlie559x]

@billybambam1111 but robs still the shit

[mazingguitar]

@billybambam1111 that's true :)

[mazingguitar]

5.27 and on - legacy.... 

[sadwings73]

@billybambam1111 bullshit



[crzgfx]

@billybambam1111 There's Ralf Scheepers. He's like a clone of Rob Halford. And Rob ist still the best.

[hitman802]

stand by for the exciter!

[80swillnevardie]

I like the unleashed in the east version best

[TheGreatDuck]

Hmm,the Letters are written in the style that appears on Iron Maiden album covers...Would be cool if Maiden would cover Judas on a b-side one day.

[michikuTV]

killer version!

ripper is awesome!!!!

[bulletinman]

Just who is this Exciter? Prince William...

[batirubeaa]

Que cantante señores!! Que mejor tributo que este. En mi pais recien se estan formando este tipo de cantantes. Te saludo desde Argentina y gracias por el video.

[mazametalcordoba]

te esperamos entonces el 12/10 en super rock jejej

Maza (Cordoba) Junto A Ripper!

[lordkiller1977]

Vaaaaaaaamo! Aguante Ripper, y si en octubre estaremos ahi!

[GWARRRRRR420]

the lad does this way better i think

[magister39]

Vocals sound kinda overprocessed. Tim is a great singer, but I prefer SYL's version though.

[BloodReverence]

Agreed.

[millenniumoverdrive]

Yeah, I love Tim and I like this a lot...but Devin sounds like his head is going to blow apart and I like that a lot!

[metalgod1972]

Not bad but kinda slow. Tim as always sounds great but this version doesnt come close to Gamma Ray with Ralf Scheepers doing it....not even in the same universe....My fave Priest tune of all time and I'm kinda disappointed

[DFORCEAMAZING]

I prefer Gamma Ray's cover with Ralf Scheepers. It is great.

[MurdertheDawn]

I'm looking that up ASAP!!

[chezzrok]

Sin after Sin FTW!...

[Infernalfight666]

The original is better.

[PsiqueLogos]

jugulator album was awesome! close to powerful industrial metal! whit a great songs, incredible music and vocal.

best Judas priest albums:

1.pain killer and jugulator....bout # 1.

2.Angel of retribution

[rockabilly64]

I hear ya, respect, powerful albums!

But for me, the boat floats for these four classical albums:

1. Sad Wings of destiny

2. Screaming For Vengeance

3. British Steel

4. Stained Class

[manoavina]

I know it´s ripper singing... and he fuckin rules!... but does anyone know who´s playing drums, bass and guitars here???

[theZodiacDigital]

the scream at the beginning is pure epic win.

[biglyn4000]

too slow guys:(

[rockabilly64]

I just can't get enough of this version, fucking awesome job done by Mr. Scream Machine Tim Ripper Owens, hats off!

[scrutinizer615]

ripping version !!! all tribute songs are worth all the weight they carry.the originals are and always will be the greatest as we all were in our formative metal years and are EXACTLY what they are :TRIBUTES giving thanks to our predessors for what they have given us----

[Tiitti]

GREAT VERSION...!!!!!

[AlinaJette1]

this is horrible, this whole album is a disgrace,,.,.,.there are no effects on halfords voice in the real verson song, there was no need to do this song if it wasn't going to be done right, ripper is cool, but he should know his limits.,.,.

[KevinSGibson]

you should as well

[Tkdlolboy91]

Tim isnt trying to sing it the same way rob did, he makes his own version of it, and i love and respect both of these guys for their vocal skills. we shouldnt compare them, we should tribute them.

[robertmetal77]

No cabe duda que con cualquier madre se conforman, tim owens tiene una gran voz, pero desgraciadamente su limitado talento para componer lo ha llevado a realizar solo covers y claro!!, no queriendo decir con esto que no haya hecho versiones increíbles como en el caso de Mr. crowley, pero parece ser que ya es momento de que haga cosas verdaderamente inovadoras, porque en esta versión se quedó corto ante la maestría de ROB HALFORD!!!!

[heavyray]

if this is a tribute to judas priest, why the cover album has the maiden letters?

[vastar87]

haha yeahhh, what is that all about?

p.s. Priest rules Maiden!

[MetallicMetalGirl]

that cover album is fan made

[Privat3Kag3]

Priest is Maidens Heavy Metal Twin/Father in a sense. =)

[baz08metal]

amazing mather fucker hi got special voice amazing ...

[rockabilly64]

When he leaps amidst us

With combustive dance

All shall bear the branding

Of his thermal lance,

Cauterizing masses

Melting into one

Only when there's order

Will his job be done.

Stand by for Exciter

Salvation is his task

[joeravencrow]

just fucking amazing...... RIPPER OWENS IS THE FUCKING SCREAM MACHINE......

 ~ DEMON ~

[rockabilly64]

GREAT SHIT!

Tim Ripper Owens rules!

[headmetal80]

This is a great cover by Ripper!!!

[rriiff]

fuck yeah! thats it!

[Yaxbie]

Sounds fucking great. But of course, why wouldn't it? It's Ripper!
